The Art of Pulp Horror: An Illustrated History (Applause Books)

This is the third illustrated horror art book edited by Stephen Jones that I have bought via Amazon. All three are superbly researched with excellently reproduced art work and informative text .Can't praise all three of these books enough and can't wait for the next one !

This remarkable companion to the award winning The Art of Horror and The Art of Horror Movies, from the same creative team behind those acclaimed illustrated volumes, looks at the sexy, sleazy and sensational subject matter in books, magazines, comics and movies, that has helped to shape modern horror.This book is brilliant, I could look at it all day, I just love this artwork so much and this book is full of it, along with loads of information on vintage horror movies - some of which I never knew existed until now and now I want to watch all of them!

Interesting and informative.

ho già restituito il prodotto una volta e mi è arrivato di nuovo danneggiato....per un libro da 50 euro!!!!!

A nice large selection of paintings & graphics from the pulp-ish world of exploitational. media. I was a bit surprised to see as much space devoted to sensational movie poster art - as I usually associate the term ‘pulp’ more with printed materials. Regardless, I’m a fan of pretty much all exploitation art so I didn’t see this as a problem. Other reviewers have noted the small size of some of the images as a negative. I can appreciate the trade-off between providing a large sampling of images and the size of the reproduction being limited by the page count/cost of production,. The quality of the reproduction is excellent so that even tho SOME of the pictures are on the small size I appreciate the quantity of visual material. I personally would question the selection of some of the paintings that did get large reproduction. Generally I think this is a great compendium of weird sensational art and would imagine that people who enjoy such would treasure this book!
